About

artist. maker. creative. I absolutely love what I do. What motivates me? YOU! I love being a part of your stories.

Timeless artisan jewelry for today's modern woman and man

I'm an artist and a maker. I always have been. My grandfather was a chalk artist, a photographer and a textile artist in New York City. The creativity oozes from my very core. I create because I can't help myself.

https://vimeo.com/192521801

I pursued a fine arts degree in photography and illustration...enjoying each art form I encountered...but never feeling the passion. Put a torch in my hand? Passion ignited.

Each Studio Jewel original is personally conceptualized and designed by myself, and then meticulously handcrafted using 100% recycled metal along with gorgeous luscious gemstones. Using sustainable, recycled materials is so important to me!

I have always HAD to work to help support my family. Now I GET to work!
I found my niche! My studio is in a cool old piano factory!. The best part? ALL my family is involved! Even my 4 teenagers.

SIDE BAR: why is my shop called thebeadgirl? When I joined Etsy, back in 2005 as a buyer - i was still using beads in my work. When I officially opened my shop in 2007 I already had that as an email, so it seemed ok. Who knew things would morph so much. I guess I could have changed the name...but for me...it reminds me of where I started and how far I've come. (I love that!)

Anyway, creating beautiful artisan jewelry is what I do. Connecting with each of you, as I design something you will treasure is what excites me every day. Thank you for your interest in my work...and for stepping into my studio. If you have time...stay for a cup of tea and some dark chocolate - and feel free to ask me anything!!

Audrey

Assistant

Audrey is one of my very best friends and the one who helps me pull it all together. She answers convos and emails…she manages financials…she keeps me sane. Without her I'm pretty sure I would have lost my mind by now!

Please note. The photo of the item is not the actual item you will receive. Each of my designs are hand created to order and will vary from the original. Hand stamping is just that, hand stamping. It will never be perfect...but that is the beauty in a hand created design!

I personally conceptualize and design each StudioJewel original. Every piece is handcrafted in the USA.

Shipping

In stock items are shipped within 5-7 business days of receiving payment.
Custom items will be shipped upon completion, usually 3 to 4 weeks.

Every piece I create is custom made.

Please contact me BEFORE placing your order if you need your design sooner than the 3-4 week window. Choosing expedited shipping does NOT expedite the creation time. I do have rush options available depending on my current workload. But, rush processing is not always available, especially around the holidays.

Orders are shipped first class via USPS to destinations in the United States. We are not responsible for "lost" items if you do not choose to purchase insurance. If would like to purchase insurance, require delivery confirmation or need expedited shipping, please contact me for details on additional charges.

International shipping. We will ship first-class international outside the US. With this option there is no tracking for your packages and once it leaves our hands and enters customs we CANNOT be responsible. If you would like a more reliable option with tracking please contact us for Priority International or FedEx.

We cannot mark items as a "gift" since that would be dishonest - therefore it is the buyers responsibility for all taxes and customs fees that might be incurred.

We do not ship to the Middle East due to complications.

Your order will ship to the address assigned to your Etsy receipt.

Get It Quick:
There are faster shipping options available to you when you check out. Priority Mail and Express Mail. This is only a quicker shipping option, IT DOES NOT SPEED UP THE PROCESS OF CREATION, just shipping!

Refunds and Exchanges

I cannot accept returns for custom stamped or custom sized items like rings...however, I want you to be completely satisfied with your purchase. Rings can possibly be resized, there is a charge beginning at $20 for resizing of rings. Rings with gemstones are always at risk of damage in resizing. That is your risk.

If a piece does not meet your expectations for any reason, please contact me by email or Etsy conversation within 7 days of receipt to request a refund or exchange - we will see is an option for your particular item. Custom stamped items are not returnable. Shipping charges are not refundable.

Your feedback is very important to me and is permanent. If you experience a problem with your order, please give me the opportunity to correct it before leaving feedback. I am here to make your shopping excursion as enjoyable as possible!

Additional policies and FAQs

Please understand that handcrafted jewelry...is just that...handcrafted. Each piece may vary slightly from the actual photo taken.

Also great care should be taken to maintain the integrity of your handcrafted design. Sterling silver WILL tarnish over time if not cared for properly. To minimize tarnish, store in a plastic bag or other airtight container. Items can be gently cleaned with a silver polishing cloth.

CUSTOM jewelry.
Please be aware that custom jewelry takes time to create. I want to make sure your design is created without error, so you will receive an email confirmation of your order with ALL the details typed out.

Custom orders DO take about 4 weeks to create and ship. If you are in a time crunch, let me know. Often we can work something out to meet your needs.

So what exactly IS a custom order? Anything with a custom length or size. Anything hand stamped. Any of our rings. Any item that you have made uniquely yours!

Rings. If you choose to have your ring resized by another jewelry store or jewelry artist I cannot be responsible for the state of your ring, or stones that may be loosened and or lost in this process. If you have a size issue, contact me first for pricing and the possibility to have the ring resized. Flush set stone rings canNOT be resized since it will compromise the setting.
